I don't know about you guys, but I don't think I'll click on the above
link.

My sentiments exactly, but if anyone can figure out what the hell he is
talking about, let us know. In the meantime, DON'T CLICK.


I went to the link from a system where it is safe to do so (Mozilla
running on OpenVMS). Since the system can't run the file, it
downloads it as binary. I normally would expect an *.ASP file to
be a link to on-line video or something, but this wasn't.

It starts off as <SCRIPT language=vbscript>, but the rest is
unintellible. It ends with some sort of UnEncode function that
apparently goes through the contents and unpacks it in some way,
creating a document.

Some brave person with a disposable system might want to run it
to unpack it to see what it really is: but unless you know how
to take proper precautions, I second the previous comments not
to follow the link.

Bart.

I suspect that it's in some extended character
set, probably Chinese given the probable location of the web
site.



I ran it on one of my Macs (Tiger) and it opened a System Profile, attempting to upload hardware and software configurations.

It wasn't successful at either the upload or the evaluation, but it did access the profiling software without a hesitation.
